kisscool_38 Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 Congrats! How do you grow it? It seems to be a not so easy species. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maurizio Posted January 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 (edited) Congrats! How do you grow it? It seems to be a not so easy species. It' not a difficult species to grow, in my conditions it has been difficult to make it flower. I grow it like all other tuberous drosera: peat and sand, dry during the dormancy, water in the tray during vegetative period. Outside, min temps about -2°C.

Rodrigo Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 Greetings Maurizio, the flowers of this species of Utricularia are very beautiful . The fact that you have provided the necessary conditions for this plant that could flourish is something fascinating , because as said by the member kisscool_38, this is not a carnivorous plant easy to grow . In this case I congratulate him and wish success made ​​by the hobby . Best Regards, Rodrigo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc S. Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 (edited) Hi Maurizio, congratulations to your success - please keep us updated about the progress of the flower!!! You have the right climate to grow this nice species outside, whereas we have to grow it carefully in greenhouses or terrariums. This is one of my absolute favorites and your plants look extremely healthy I have to say - thanks for showing us! cheers Marc Edited January 14, 2013 by Marc S.
